great many HERALD's are now be
ing sent east by parties residing here.
To eastern readers let us say this week
briefly, that Phillips is in the northern
tier OF counties, and is the fifth county
east Of the Colorado line, or about 80
miles. The county has % townships,
and Is thirty miles square 1t is only
sparsely settled yet and is q good place
10 come 10. The soil is rich; it is well
watered; it contains considerable tim
Der for a prairie country; it has an
abundance of building stone; She eli
mate is mild; being 900 feet above the
Missouri river, it is high and healthy;
lands are yet cheap. Phillipsburg, the
county seat, is located in the geo
graphical center OF the county and has
6SI inhabitants. (See County Clerks
certificate to that effect in another
place. The Chicago, Kansas d. Ne
braska Railroad, being part OF the
great Rock Island system, viii be built
through PhiMpsburg this summer. IL
is the main line from St. Joseph Mis-
ouri 70 Denver Colorado. There is
every Indication that this wiz be di-
vision station as men representing the
Rock Island Town Company, have re-
Gently purchased about LOCO acres OF
land adjoining or close to the town.
Phillipsburg has also very good pros
poets OF securing one or two other lines
of railway. The town is beautifully To-
Gated, is yet small, the county is ne"
and undeveloped the country is one OF
the best on the continent. 1t does not
require q gift of prophecy to predict
that in a few years this town viii have
several thousands Of inhabitants, and
the county all settled up and in high
state of cultivation. We do not believe
we are giving young and middie-aged
people bad advice when we say this ls
a good place to come 10.

The unprecedented sale of BOschee's
German syrup within n few years,
has astOnished the world. 1t is with
out doubt the safest and best remedy
ever discovered for the speedy and eff
iectual cure of coughs, colds and the
scverest lung troubles. l. acts on an
entirely different principle from the
usual Prescriptions given by physi-
clans, as it does not dry up cough
and leave the disease still in the sys-
tenn, but ON the contrary removes the
cause of the trouble, heals the parts
affected and leaves them in a purely
healthy condition. A bottle Kept in
the house for use when the disease
makes its appearance, viii save doc
tors bills and a long spell of serious
illness. A trial Will convince you of
these facts. 1t is positively sold by all
druggists and general dealers in the
land. Price, 70 cts, large bottles.

Tno Central Branch.

From a-al-so- Daily Champion,
The papers In northwestern Kansas
contain numerous items 10 the effect
that the Central Branch road has been,
or is to be, sold to the Rock Island Co.
Many statements OF Iaclss or supposed
facts, are made 90 sustain this story.

nora Leader aicga that Instructions

win and ieLOTl 10 make 40 mOre-rs-
pairs. and -o use no more new material
Tor thirty days Similar statements
are made by other papers along the
line
We do not believe there is any truth
in the reported sale Of the Central
Branch to- the Rock Island Co The
Central Branch is the most valuable
feeder the Missouri Pacific now has,
and Mr. Could would not be likely to
give MP its control, IL he could possibly
retain 1t, and this he can probably do

VIM. BisseIl, last week, saw person
ally w. B. Doderidge, Gen. SuPerin-
tendeut, of the Missouri Pacific Systems
and he said there was no foundation
whatever Tor the report that the Rock
Island had purchased the Central
Branch. The report originated from
the fact that he ordered an inventory OF
ties made on the Central Branch, and the
reason that inventory was made was be-
cause there was q great discrepancy be
tween the reports OF the section boss s
and the boOk-keeper in the general
office at St. Louis, and it was necessary
to take an invoice and sraighten out
the snarl. And that was all there was
Of it.

The Supreme Court of Kansas has
decided that e woman does not change
her name by marriage but that she re-
tains what is generally known as her
s'maiden name' through life, no mat
ter how many times she is married.
just what effect that decision VIII have
in the matter of the execution Of Deeds
and mortgages. we do not know. We
presume that the proper way for q
married woman to sign legal docu-
ment, would be to sign her maiden
name followed by the sir name' Of
her husband, thus; If Jane smith
married man named Brown she
should sigh her name as Jane Smith
Brown, Kansas is the most progress

THE NAY POTTER AFFAIR.

R. T. Shearer, Esq, Of Logan, who
called upon us last Tuesday, informs
us that he reported the testimony in
the preliminary trial referred to, and
that it was not q ''farce ." He says il
was clearly shown that Dr.. Lawrence
did no intentional wrong to Kiss Potter
while treating her professionally, and
that our aIlusion to the matter above
reproduced, does him an injustice. In
making use OF the above language we did
not intend to pass an opinion as to the
guilt or innocence of DR.. Lawrence, for
we knew nothing whatever rs to what
facts the trial had brought cut. We
stated only what the Logan Freeman
said about it, aud then we added in q
general way, the closing remark that
seduction and abortion were crimes as
bad as murder. If, therefore, the laa-
guage above given, does do DR.. Law
renee an injustice, we wish to correct
the statement and say that we did not
so intend it. And now in n general
way without reference to the sad case
of May Potter, we want TO add few
words in this connection. Girls have

How to Advertise Phillips Ooun ty

There is hardly an issue Of the HER
AID that does not have something to
say about Kansas and Phillips county.
Now if every subscriber who takes tins
paper would, after reading it, wrap it
mp and send it to some eastern acquaiu-
teI ce this town and county would an q
year, be well advertised To do this
would only cost you one cent each week
for postage. Tens of thousands Of
eastern people are thinking of coming
west-are almost persuaded to come.
They read Kansas papers eagerly. The
reading Of even one copy of the HER
AID might influence them to come to
this county. a better plan is to sub
scribe Tor the HERALD for your friend
and have US send him the paper three
or six months, but if you won't do that
send them your paper after you have
read it.
